'Unicode' Error When Casting to String?

thanks so much for the suggestions! Using the .decode() I was able to get it to avoid the error at least. Adding in errors=‘replace’ can at least get around the erroring.

text_as_UTF8 = _text_In. **decode** ('utf-8', errors='replace')

But any idea how I can keep that funny character (in this case a degree symbol) as part of my output?

oh - and Graham, in mine I can only set the input type hint - not on the output - maybe cus’ I’m still on the old Rhino/GH version? I have the input (_text_In) set to ‘No Type Hint’ in the example above.

thanks again!
